Objective To explore the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced(DCE)-MRI quantitative parameters based on differential sub-sampling with Cartesian ordering(DISCO)technology for differentiating high-and low-grade breast cancer.Methods A total of 80 patients with single breast cancer confirmed by biopsy pathology were retrospectively enrolled,including 40 cases of low-grade(L group)and 40 cases of high-grade breast cancer(H group).Then quantitative parameters obtained from DISCO-DCE-MRI before treatment were compared between groups,including extravascular extracellular volume fraction(Ve),rate constant(Kep),contrast enhancement ratio(CER),maximum slope(MaxSlope)and volume transfer constant(Ktrans),and their correlations with histological grade were analyzed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves of DISCO-DCE-MRI quantitative parameters being significantly different between groups were plotted,and the area under the curves(AUC)were calculated to evaluate their efficacy for differentiating high-and low-grade breast cancer.Results Ve(0.91[0.59,0.99]),CER(2.76±0.54)and MaxSlope(0.02[0.01,0.03])in L group were all higher than those in H group(0.52[0.34,0.73],[2.31±0.74],0.01[0.01,0.02],all P＜0.05),and no significant difference of Kep nor Ktrans was found between groups(both P＞0.05).Ve,CER and MaxSlope of breast cancer were all negatively correlated with histological grade(rs=-0.43,-0.39,-0.35,all P＜0.05),while Kep andKtranshad no significant correlation with histological grade(both P＞0.05).The AUC of Ve,CER and MaxSlope for differentiating high-and low-grade breast cancer was 0.749,0.725 and 0.700,respectively.Conclusion Among DISCO-DCE-MRI quantitative parameters,Ve,CER and MaxSlope could be used for differentiating high-and low-grade breast cancer.

BACKGROUND: Periodontitis is a severe chronic inflammatory disease, whose traditional systemic antimicrobial therapy faces great limitations. In-situ gels provide an effective solution as an emerging local drug delivery system. METHODS: In this study, the novel thermosensitive poloxamer/carbopol in-situ gels loaded with 20 lmol/L quercetin for the treatment of periodontitis were prepared by cold method. Thirteen batches of in-situ gels based on two independent factors (X1 : poloxamer 407 and X2 : carbopol 934P) were designed and optimized by the statistical method of central composite design (CCD). The transparency, pH, injectability, viscosity, gelation temperature, gelation time, elasticity modulus, degradation rate and in-vitro drug release studies of the batches were evaluated, and the percentage of drug release in the first hour, the time required for 90% drug release, gelation temperature, and gelation time were selected as dependent variables. RESULTS: These two independent factors significantly affected the four dependent variables (p < 0.05). The optimization result displayed that the optimized concentration of poloxamer 407 was 20.84% (w/v), and carbopol 934P was 0.5% (w/v). The optimized formulation showed a clear appearance (++), acceptable injectability (Pass), viscosity(151,798 mPa s), gelation temperature (36 °C), gelation time (213 s), preferable cell viability and cell proliferation, conformed to first-order release kinetics, and had a significant antibacterial effect. CONCLUSIONS The article demonstrates the great potential of the quercetin in-situ gel as an effective treatment for periodontitis.

[Objective] To investigate the mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in treating acute lung injury (ALI) via ALI mouse model.[Methods] By monoclonal antibody Anti-GD2 of specific antigen ganglioside (GD2) only expressed on MSC as a carrier,new fluorescent molecule probe were synthesized through covalently coupling Anti-GD2 and fluorescent group CyDye mono-reactive NHS Esters (Cy7).Synthetic Anti-GD2-Cy7 and MSC were labeled by the specific binding of antigen and antibody in vitro.Total 84 balb/c male mice were selected and randomly selected 48 mice were divided into three groups:sham group (n =16),MSC+ ALI group (n =16),NS + ALI group (n =16).The lung histopathology and scores,lung W/D ratio and permeability of lung microvasculature were examined at 24 h,48 h after ALI mouse model.Other 36 mice were randomly divided into three groups:normal group (n =12),sham group(n =12),MSC +ALI group(n =12).Labeled MSC-GD2-Cy7 were transplanted into MSC+ALI group and sham group mice via tail vein injection.At 30 min,1 d,3 d,and 7 d post-MSC-GD2-Cy7 injection,the mice were sacrificed after anesthesia and then the lung was removed.Excised lung was detected on small animal fluorescent imager.[Results] Contrast to NS+ ALI group,the lung histopathology and scores,lung W/D ratio and permeability of lung microvasculature of MSC +ALI group were more greatly improved at both 24 h and 48 h.Fluorescent results showed that the signal intensity in thc lung of MSC +ALI group was significantly higher than that of sham group at each time point [(3.37 ± 0.02)× 10-4 vs (2.05 ± 0.04) × 10-4 scaled counts/s;(35.54 ± 0.47)× 10-4 vs (25.29 ± 1.48) × 10-4 scaled counts/s;(11.17 ± 0.75)×10-4 vs (6.09 ± 0.62)× 10-4 scaled counts/s;(3.10 ± 0.14) vs (0.00 ± 0.00)× 10-4 scaled counts/s;all P ＜ 0.05].[Conclusion] Our study showed that a proportion of cells migrated into normal and injured lungs 30 min after cell transplantation,and the cells started to recruit and largely gather in injured lungs at day 1 and persisted to day 7,these results suggest that MSC possess the ability to home into injured tissues.
